While in Rudesheim Germany, we took the cable car (2 people per tram bucket) up to the Niederwald Monument. (It's a short walk from where you get off the cable car to the monument.) The view up the hill from the cable car is amazing...More

My family and I just visited the Rudesheim/Rhein River area last week. There is an interesting experience. From Rudesheim, you can take a 5 minute chairlift above the lovely vineyard hills, the scenery is wonderful. When you get to the top, there is the Niederwald...More

There are two ways to go up the monument. You can either take the cable car or walk up the meandering vineyards for a beautiful view over Rhein. The Monument uphill was erected to commemorate the unification of Germany. Highly recommended particularly on a fine...More

We got there by car - no problems finding it, ample parking (for a fee). Walk the short stretch to the monument and enjoy the spectacular views over the vineyards and the Rhine valley. Small visitor centre next to the cable car station with reasonably...More

We returned to Rüdesheim and of course that means another’s trip on the cable cars up to the Niederwald Monument to take in the stunning views of the Rhein and the fabulous vineyards. Everyone visiting Rüdesheim needs to experience this

The monument is really impressive and worth to go. You will have an astonishing view over the vineyards, Rhein river, castles and the city of Rüdesheim. We also really recommend making the easy hiking through the forest.

An easy trip up with the cable car rewarding you with amazing views to the Rhine Valley. I would recommend walking back down as it is downhill an easy walk through the vineyards and even more amazing views to enjoy.

The gondolien is indeed for two Persons but it is comfortable. We visited the place outside the peak tourist season and did not need to queuing for the ticket office. July might be different. Better to reserve time for that... More

The gondolien is indeed for two Persons but it is comfortable. We visited the place outside the peak tourist season and did not need to queuing for the ticket office. July might be different. Better to reserve time for that or check out if the have online booking which could make it quicker. If you have time it is also nice to walk back instead taking the gondola. On the walking trip back to the village you see lovely wine fields and a monastery with their winery.
